I am reminded how my inner peace comes from total acceptance of each part of me.
I used to fear the “sinful” parts of me and tried to push them down and stuff them away somewhere deep inside.
I would then struggle to keep them in check, and I would be exhausted from fighting with them.
Eventually I became so sick of the fight I finally released myself from the secrets through a thorough moral inventory.
I discussed my inventory with a trusted mentor who shared how he had the same types of experiences. He shared how he had made peace with his daemons.
Over the years I have allowed myself to befriend what I used to condemn.
I no longer act out in ways that would hurt myself or others.
I accept that fact that I am a balance of all my parts.
I am a creature of opposites.
In my balancing of all the different parts, I have become free.
I no longer fear any part of me; I embrace all of me and I appreciate the amazing creation that I am.
In my acceptance and appreciation of all parts of me, I accept and appreciate all those in my experience.
May each of you find your balance.
You are Loved.
